Female Novel
Chapter 352
To be honest, Taylor did not care if it were Thomas getting killed by those six old monsters or the otherway around once the two hours were up. Those had nothing to do with him, and what he cared aboutthe most was that precious period. He only hoped that Thomas would not kill those six old monstersimmediately.
Meanwhile, Thomas ignored him and sat on the couch with a frown, lost in thought. Luckily for him, thesix old monsters had the same level of strength as him. As long as he maintained this afternoon’scultivation speed, breaking through to Profound Tier Three overnight would not be a problem. By then,he could easily take on all six with no problem.
After glancing at Taylor, he thought the old man was just as he had expected. Though he lookedharmless, he was indeed a vicious wolf in sheep’s clothing! What would happen after he killed the sixold monsters? The Saunder Family could escape their control, but would the Crimson Moon let thismatter slide? The Saunder Family was a force they trained, so how could they just sit and watch theSaunders betray them without doing anything?
Since Taylor came up with this plan, it meant he must have a way to ensure the Crimson Moon wouldnot seek them out for revenge. His biggest bet was that he might have found the family an evenstronger supporter, one so powerful that even the Crimson Moon dared not provoke. Moreover, heplanned to bring the entire Saunders to run away to their new backer during the two hours Thomas wasbusy stalling the six old monsters!
The Saunder Family has nothing to worry about, but a question remains—what about me? If theCrimson Moon dares not go after the Saunder Family, won’t they gather all their frustrations on me?This isn’t cooperation; they want me to be their scapegoat! Oh, Taylor Saunder, do you think I’m af*cking fool?novelbin
Sensing something strange from Thomas’ expression, Taylor added, “Mr. Clifford, those six oldmonsters will be coming for you by tomorrow afternoon.”
At that point, Thomas knew his guesses were correct. Taylor needed those two hours to get to his newbacker and had already arranged everything with the other party. As long as he could bring all the coremembers of the Saunder Family to finish everything they needed during that period, the new backerwould then protect their family.
“Mr. Clifford, I believe that with your abilities, those six old monsters will be easy targets for you. All youneed to do is keep them at bay for two hours, and I’ll give you something to increase your chances ofwinning that battle.”
“Really?” Thomas sneered. “But you’ve just said those six are easy targets, so why are you still givingme something for a sure-win battle?”
“Uhm…” Taylor had nothing to say. Who does he think he is? It was just a few words of flattery, and notonly does he believe it’s true, but he’s even picking out errors in my speech.
“The Saunders and I are different. My grudge against those six old monsters is purely protecting Olivia,so I do not need to work with you. As for the two hours you mentioned, you should think of anotherway.”
Once Thomas was done speaking, he left. Two hours? That’s easier said than done. Life and death arejust moments away during battles between masters, so why should I risk my life and safety to help himstall for two hours? Moreover, his first intention is not to cooperate with me but use me and throw meunder the bus!
Meanwhile, Quincy watched everything from the sidelines and said nothing. How could he not guessTaylor’s intentions? He merely did not expect him to be such a ruthless person.
“Mr. Clifford, are you not going to reconsider?” Taylor’s tone turned cold. He had already arranged withthe new backer to bring the Saunder Family there tomorrow. If he backed out of the deal, it would upsethis new backer and make it difficult for them to seek protection in the future!
Yes. You, Thomas Clifford, are a powerful man, but it’s not like I don’t know what happened at AckettsEstate. You only managed to injure Cordan, a Profound Tier One master, but did not kill him. Thatproves your skills aren’t to the point of killing Cordan, let alone those six old monsters at the Peak ofProfound Tier Three! Do you seriously think you can take them on?
“The current situation is not in your favor. You won’t stand a chance without my gift!”
At that point, Taylor was furious. He came here bearing information and gifts and even sincerely,humbly pleaded with the other, so how could he just get up and leave? That was simply absurd! DidThomas think he was an almighty god while the six old monsters were mere trash?
Thomas stopped walking and turned around to look at him. Taylor’s words were no longer a plea forcooperation but a threat—an outright one!

“Thomas, don’t tell me you’re afraid. Do you fear the six old monsters, or are you afraid of the CrimsonMoon supporting them?”
“Fear?” Thomas approached Taylor and looked down at him. “To tell you the truth, the person who canintimidate me in this world has yet to exist! You can have the great gift you mentioned, and similarly, it’snone of my concern if you want to escape their control! As for why I refused to work with you… Huh.Do you think I’m a fool? Are you considering letting me take on the Crimson Moon’s rage while theSaunder Family escapes? I have nothing to do with you, so what right do you have to make me take on
your enemy? Taylor Saunder, I only agreed to meet you because of Quincy. Otherwise, who do youthink you are, and why should I come all the way here just to meet with you, you idiot?!”
“You—” Taylor was so pissed that he trembled. It was the first time someone dared to speak to him soinsolently! On what basis are you acting so arrogant? So what if you have a close connection to RafaelMaze? He’s all the way in Capitalis, so he and the forces behind him can’t save you, even if theywanted to!
As for Taylor, it was an entirely different story. The gift he was about to give Thomas was informationabout the six old monster’s vital regions that could kill them! Also, he planned on giving him atreasurable item that could help increase his abilities within a short timeframe! In other words, he wasgiving Thomas a chance. A chance to survive the battle with those six old monsters! However, Thomasrejected him so straightforwardly and firmly, so how could he not be furious?
Moreover, without Thomas stalling the six old monsters for two hours, whether it was escaping the sixold monsters’ control or bringing the Saunder Family to start a new life, all of those were just emptypromises!”
“Thomas, are you unwilling to work with me?”
Nodding, Thomas replied, “Yes, I don’t want to. You can find whoever’s willing to help you! I can stillbeat up those six old monsters without your gift!”
“Good! Very good!” Taylor repeated before threatening, “You’d better not regret it!”
